Upside: I HAD MY FIRST BAPTISM!!!
Downside: I left immediately after for the hospital...
Upside: It was a sweet baptism and many patient and supporting ward members came! It was even conducted my our newly appointed Ward Mission Leader! Wahoo!
Downside: We happened to schedule it during a rugby tournament happening in our village in Wailoku. To which are investigator went and forgot about her baptism so we had to taxi down, walk (not me, my companion. I was in too much pain) across the muddy ruby field and get her for her baptism that was already late.
Upside: The hospital had really good food and I should be out tomorrow!! Yay! ( she was. )
Downside: I now know what it feels like to have an IV. They really start to hurt after 24 hours.
*sorry about the picture. I was in lots of pain and my companion took this when I was first being admitted. haha
This picture is the baptism of Sharon Lovis. An indian with an austrailian husband. Only member in her family. So amazing and knows a lot about all the other religions and thereby knows this one is unique. :) Her baptism was heaps good. It was all planned and prepared by our newly called bishopric and WML. It was great. We just got to come and enjoy it. unlike the last one which was stressful. haha
This picture is the baptism of Meresi. Her testimony is powerful. Her spirit is contagious. She had a sincere heart and real intent and the result is the amount of joy she is experiencing. Very inspiring. I love her. She is already preparing to serve a mission.
I got a new companion! Sister I'aulualo finished her mission this last transfer and went home to Samoa! Crazy. I got my follow up trainer on thursday! She is awesome! I love her! Her name is Sister Fiu. She is from Samoa as well. A real hard worker and very dedicated. She was an answer to my prayers for this area that I love so much
the transfers were crazy. The whole WEEK was crazy. This picture is of the Tamavua Sisters that I was a trio with while waiting for my companion to fly in from her last area on a northern island. I love them. They are way fun and we learned very much from eachother. :) They're names are Sister Teupoorautoa (from tahiti) and sister Taufa (a Tongan from Australia)
